Product Description
Mt. Rainier's 14,417-foot peak is visible for nearly one hundred miles
on a good day, and is an iconic feature of the horizon in Western Washington.
A strato-volcano, Mt. Rainier's present cone is one half-million years old
and covered with glaciers that amount to nearly one cubic mile of ice.
Though it last erupted in 1854. Rainier is still potentially active, and because of its
proximity to the densely-settled Seattle-Tacoma area and the massive amount of
ice that would be melted during an eruption, it poses more risk than any other
volcano in the US.

This model showcases Rainier's summit and steep cone, and because we used
the latest USGS high-resolution data, minor features as little as 100' wide are modeled.
Little Tahoma dominates the Eastern slope, the summit crater is obvious,
and crevasses in the mountain's major glaciers are even visible.
If you can't see Rainier every day, or if you can, but only from one angle,
put this mountain on your desk or coffee table and enjoy it whenever you like.

Model scale is 1:167200

TinyMtn models are most affordable in the "Sandstone" and "White Natural Versatile Plastic" materials. This model is in "Sandstone," which is a glued gypsum material. When you receive the model it will be ready for display, though it may smell funny and need some time to air out. "Sandstone" models are much more brittle than "Versatile Plastic" models, but feel more like light stone. Do not soak it in water, though you can safely seal it with Polycrylic or a similar water-based clear spray sealant. Read more about this popular material here.

All TinyMtn models have hollow bottoms - this is to save on weight, and thus cost. Many larger models also have extra flanges on their undersides to increase rigidity and strength. To make the model more solid, you should feel free to carefully pour resin into the bottom cavity, or glue a properly-sized slab of wood or another material into it.

These models have been optimized for the above materials, and are not offered in other materials for strength or cost reasons. If you need one in another material, please tinymtnbiz@gmail.com and we'll do our best to fulfill your request.
